Description
This Accountability and Governance Policy is designed to be the cornerstone of Organization’s commitment to compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), ensuring that personal data is handled with the utmost care and respect for individual rights and freedoms. At the heart of this policy is the appointment of a Data Protection Officer (DPO), responsible for overseeing GDPR compliance and acting as a point of contact for data protection matters. The policy clearly defines the roles and responsibilities of both management and employees, emphasizing the importance of a top-down commitment to data protection. Management is tasked with providing necessary resources and support, while employees are expected to undergo regular training and actively contribute to GDPR compliance efforts. The governance framework within this policy includes measures such as Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) for high-risk processing activities, rigorous record-keeping, and clear procedures for detecting, reporting, and investigating data breaches. It also addresses the critical aspect of third-party relationships by requiring GDPR-compliant data protection clauses in contracts with data processors.
